Parity violation constraints using 2006-2007 QUaD CMB polarization spectra

QUaD Collaboration, E. Y. S. Wu, P. Ade +29

We constrain parity-violating interactions to the surface of last scattering using spectra from the QUaD experiment's second and third seasons of observations by searching for a po…

The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey and the search for the most distant quasars

Daniel J. Mortlock, Mitesh Patel, Stephen J. Warren +5

The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey (LAS) has the necessary combination of filters (Y, J, H and K), depth (Y <~ 20.2) and area coverage (~4000 deg^2) to d…

Stellar disruption by a supermassive black hole: is the light curve really proportional to ?

G. Lodato, A. R. King, J. E. Pringle

In this paper we revisit the arguments for the basis of the time evolution of the flares expected to arise when a star is disrupted by a supermassive black hole. We present a simpl…

Fields from a relativistic magnetic explosion

K. N. Gourgouliatos, D. Lynden-Bell

Following Prendergast we study the relativistically expanding electromagnetic fields generated by an axisymmetric explosion of magnetic energy in a small volume. The magnetic field…

Kinematic sub-populations in dwarf spheroidal galaxies

Ugur Ural, Mark I. Wilkinson, Andreas Koch +7

We present new spectroscopic data for twenty six stars in the recently-discovered Canes Venatici I (CVnI) dwarf spheroidal galaxy. We use these data to investigate the recent claim…

Mid-Infrared Spectroscopic Properties of Ultra-Luminous Infrared Quasars

Chen Cao, X. Y. Xia, Hong Wu +3

We analyse mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopic properties for 19 ultra-luminous infrared quasars (IR QSOs) in the local universe based on the spectra from the Infrared Spectrograph on…
